Abstract: Since the 1970s,it has been believed in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) that the pathogenesis of precocious puberty is primarily associated with yin-deficiency and fire-excess,and the treatments that nourish yin and purge fire are advocated.Therefore,an integrated treatment strategy combining TCM and western medicine has gradually been formulated.Modern medical research indicates that precocious puberty results from the interplay of genetic and environmental factors,involving heredity,diet,chemical substance interference,and psychological factors.TCM emphasizes the combined influence of internal and external factors,such as dietary irregularities and emotional disturbances,and focuses on therapeutic methods like nourishing yin,purging fire,soothing the liver,and relieving stagnation.The integrated approach of TCM and western medicine offers a more comprehensive treatment plan for precocious puberty.The TCM theory of "preventive treatment of disease" underscores the importance of prevention,reducing risk factors and performing proactive treatment to avoid long-term complications.
